Obama to business owners: ‘You didn’t build that’ – Patriot Update

HEY OBAMA!! YOU DIDN’T BUILD THIS COUNTRY but you ARE TEARING IT DOWN! Just when I thought Obama couldn’t be any more arrogant, condescending, pompous and anti-America, he opens his mouth and removes all doubt!!! Of course my husband and I, who are small business owners, we didn’t get to where we are through OUR OWN HARD WORK…no no, according to that arrogant asshat, it’s the govt.’s doing??? Hey Obama…Screw off!

President Obama, in a speech to supporters, suggested business owners owe their success to government investment in infrastructure and other projects — saying “if you’ve got a business, you didn’t build that.”

Obama’s comment Friday during a campaign stop in Roanoke, Va., came just days after he urged Congress to extend tax cuts enacted during the Bush administration only to families earning less than $250,000 annually — part of his argument that top earners have an obligation to pay more to trim the deficit.

“There are a lot of wealthy, successful Americans who agree with me because they want to give something back,” the president said. “If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there.”
